It should have been a routine investigation. Instead, DEA K-9 agent Adam “Deck” Decker watches in horror as one Denver hospital seems to be Ground Zero for overdoses of a new drug. Now Deck can only hope a certain icy, green-eyed ER doctor will help him and his canine partner track down the deadly source.
Dr. Tori Sampson has her reasons for not trusting federal agents, especially ones working for the DEA. But the rash of overdoses—including a heartbreaking case involving a teen—is alarmingly high. And the new opioid is not only extremely dangerous, it defies all the usual medical treatments. So Tori has a choice: work with the big, brawny, and annoyingly hot DEA agent…or watch more innocent people die.
Tori’s the only person who can help Deck break the case, and they’ll need to trust each other, no matter how high the tension and attraction sizzling between them runs. But with every question answered, they realize there’s something more behind these typical teen overdoses. There’s a pattern here, and a pattern can only suggest one thing. There’s a killer on the loose.

Summary
Tough Justice by Tee O’Fallon was an action packed romantic suspense. You can tell the author did a lot of research or knows her stuff when it comes to police procedures.
The story seemed so realistic and gave you the inside look at how drug overdoses impact the hospitals and the law enforcement communities.
Dr Tori was sick of losing patients to drug overdoses. however she also had her own reasons for not trusting the DEA.
Deck and his K9 were adorable! He is swoon-worthy. Deck works for the DEA and has a passion for taking drugs off the streets. I also hope that Deck’s friends get their own books. I enjoyed their camaraderie.
